Suggest Treatment For Tennis Elbow

Hi I am 50 years of age and have been playing tennis for last 6 years. I suffered from tennis elbow on 9th July 2016 and have been taking TNS frequently and did hot and cold fermentation during the earlier days. I do not see any improvement and am unable to drink water from a 2 litre water bottle. Going by this speed I don t hope to get completely fit in next 6 months also. What would you advise me to do?
